If your takeaway from your link was that "it's fine" and not "that further research is necessary"... you are going one step further than the article. I can understand why people do…

Nor did I say that the poster here was fit or unfit. I speculated about what two extreme opinion holders would say to one another. My point was that polarizing the discourse and re…

Says the person linking to "informationliberation dot com". Pot, meet kettle. Sure her twitter profile is highly politically charged and should likely have made her unfit for clear…

What does "hybrid clip" mean? Audio + MIDI in the same track? Live's arrangement view + session view in the same screen?

You can turn off auto-warp on audio tracks by default globally, and you can disable warp on a per clip basis as you go. In your specific case... disable warping on your ambient tra…

Hate to be a pedant... but I'm not sure any one person gets to define what "music in the art sense" even is. Yes, Ableton is rigid. Yes, Ableton favors certain musical styles over …

Not sure why this is downvoted. California, like many other jurisdictions, seems to make a distinction between groceries/"raw" foods, and "prepared foods" when it comes to sales ta…

Using the title "engineer" in conjunction with "submitting the critique and calculations [...] to members of the public for consideration and modification [...] of traffic signals"…

Completely agreed. He pretty much barked up the one tree that actively cares about use of the title "engineer", and used it in violation of the law (as it is now). Had he sent the …

Not sure if this is sarcasm or not, but the Constitution is but one piece of law in the US. There's a litany of state legislation (and I presume federal, as well) that regulate the…

Perhaps on the North Sentinel Islands now, or 4,000 years or so elsewhere in the world, "no regulations" is / was the default position. That isn't the case for recent history in mo…

My point is that neither "insects are unpleasant" nor "plants are pleasant" nor "doctors are 66% male" are immutable features of the universe. They are merely snapshots of the huma…

So, "plants are pleasant" or "insects are unpleasant" are universal truths?

Accuracy might mean "positively" right, as your post suggests, but that doesn't necessarily mean "normatively" right. From what I understand, the fear surrounding embedding human s…

Were you racially discriminated against by your pre-Uber taxis, or were you simply discriminated against because you are rich relative to your peers?

Seems like you can't Google, don't quite understand how American civil procedure works, or are willfully ignorant to both so as to be able maintain your predispositions. I'll call …

A simple Google search turns up many results.

How can you take something as useful evidence when it has been explicitly prohibited from use? Unless public colleges are secretly flying in the face of a Supreme Court ruling, you…

It's flagrantly misleading to claim that "being black is worth [x]" when this scale is dated and explicitly prohibited from use after Gratz v. Bollinger (2003). See here for UMich'…

It's clear upon clicking the link or viewing your HN profile, but in the interests of transparency, it might be useful to note that the link is to your own article and website.

I'm not quite following... Who does this leak weaken?

The world would probably be a better place if people did care a little bit more about things in general. Whether they do or don't, should or shouldn't, that's one pretty nasty way …
